The Haven
The Haven Carbis Bay / Lelant
A spectacular coastal residence with unrivalled sea views
Your very own 'beside the seaside' haven, Cornwall style.... From its striking interior design to the commanding cliff top setting, when it comes to holiday homes, as the name suggests, this impeccable and exquisite property truly is an illustrious haven. Effortlessly stylish with inspired luxury features, this home has been thoughtfully created for those that demand nothing less than the very best. Five inspiring en-suite bedrooms, state-of-the-art kitchen, decked terrace with indulgent six person cedar hot tub.
The Haven is, without doubt, the best place we have ever stayed. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the location and standard of accommodation and have even requested we make it an annual visit!
Step Inside
Architecturally crafted and interior designed, a fusion of cool muted shades cleverly combine with more vibrant hues. The solid oak floor and pillars add an almost deck-like feel to the living area, whilst contrasting polished floors and smart clean lines showcase the contemporary twist. The spacious and open plan living space offers versatility for your party, invite the outside in - embracing the superior ocean views as you draw back the glass doors. Choose from five sumptuous, en-suite bedrooms each uniquely presented and designed with luxury in mind. The master bedroom boasts a deep stone bath strategically placed at the foot of the bed, overlooking the mesmerising and enviable sea views that lie beneath. Sink under first class duvets to the sound of the sea and awake revived from a good nights rest.
On Your Doorstep
The exterior of the property is equally as impressive as the interior, a large wrap around decking area leads from the large full height glass doors of the living space with small grass area. High atop the cliff at Hawkes Point, Carbis Bay, The Haven offers the perfect slice of Cornish living from the golden sand beaches that flank the point to the laid back coastal vibe of the oversized decking area complete with panoramic Atlantic views. The large cedar hot tub is an essential part of The Haven life and perfect way to get the celebrations underway amidst those uninterrupted beach and sea views set to impress. The cosmopolitan hubbub of St Ives (Cornwall's most popular harbour town), bursting with shops, galleries and array of restaurants is only 1 mile away. 5 minutes walk along the coastal path from The Haven you can pick up the slow moving branch line train from Carbis Bay to St Ives. The journey takes around 4 minutes and you get to sample some breathtaking scenery along the way. The Haven offers a versatile home to invite the family, rally your gang of friends or escape for a romantic weekend. Whatever your vice, enjoy Cornwall's playground from action packed days on the water to moorland explorations and return to your holiday sanctuary and your very own vantage point. The Haven undeniably will be one of the finest holiday homes you'll ever have the pleasure of staying in.... Your very own 'beside the seaside' sanctuary. The Chalet (sleeps 4) is also located on Hawkes Point, so for party sizes of 14 - both properties could be rented together.
